What will be a big gig in the year 2034 that doesn’t exist today?

by•
After Microsoft and Adidas paid Ninja a dump-truck full of money, my first thought was that I should never have listened to my parents when they told me as an 8-year-old that if I kept playing video games I’d amount to nothing 😀 So, what do y’all think will be a big gig in 2034 - 15 years from now - that doesn’t exist today?

I often think about the jobs that the proliferation of AI will create e.g. will we need more ethicists and stuff like that? Also will we need more folks working in education to ensure digital tech skills are reaching all parts of the population?

@abadesi very interesting points about ethics and education. I tend to agree with both. My argument to the proponents of UBI is that, yes, indeed many displaced workers will have more free-time and autonomy to pursue their passions and interests; however, many may not even know what those interests and passions are? Not even travel agent who lost their job in the late 90’s immediately started writing poetry or woodworking. There needs to be a structured transition, and to your point, professionals to lead and guide it.
